A game by [[Videlectrix]] where you bounce the [[Tire]] around with your mouse and try to hit things like [[The Cheat]], a bird, a balloon, and [[Strong Sad]]. Sometimes the wind changes direction to make it harder. Every time you hit an object, the multiplier goes up one. It seems on a VERY rare occasion a spinning cold one will fly through. Never break a [[Cold One]]. If you break them you get 5 subtracted from your multiplier. They go by more and more as you get a higher score. | A game by [[Videlectrix]] where you bounce the [[Tire]] around with your mouse and try to hit things like [[The Cheat]], a bird, a balloon, and [[Strong Sad]].

A game by Videlectrix where you bounce the Tire around with your mouse and try to hit things like The Cheat, a bird, a balloon, and Strong Sad. Sometimes the wind changes direction to make it harder. Every time you hit an object, the multiplier goes up one. It seems on a VERY rare occasion a spinning cold one will fly through. Never break a Cold One. If you break them you get 5 subtracted from your multiplier. They go by more and more as you get a higher score.

Premise
In the year 19xx, the citizens of Strongbadia are terrorized by a faceless foe. As a top secret crack commando operative, it is you job to protect the last remaining citizen from touching the tainted soil. You are soldier! Score points by bouncing tire with mouse. Hit infidels to increase the value of each bounce. String combos to prevent the value from dropping over time. You one are of brave few. Accept your mission and step fourth. And remember; never, ever break a cold one.
Fun Facts
- Instead of the usual loading screen, the game starts with a old-school OS loading screen:
*** COMPYDORE 64 BASIC V2 *** 64K RAM SYSTEM 38911 BASIC BYTES FREE READY. LOAD "*",8,1 SEARCHING FOR *
- The above is another indicator that this game is a close parody of a C64 game, in which you bounced a balloon around to similar effect.
- The page title for the game says "I FEEL ASLEEP!", which is a reference to the original "Metal Gear" game for NES.
- When you hit certain scores a plane flies by and gives you a special random message. The possible messages are:
- YOU RULE
- PURE FUN
- GIVE IT UP
- HI-FIVE
- POP:YOU
- ROCK/ROLL
- GOOD ONE
- TIRE-TASTIC!
- JAM ON IT
- LET GO
- PARTY.WOO!
- PARDON ME?
- X-L-NT
- GROW IT OUT
- PARENTAL!!
- GOSH!
- LOVIN' IT
- SPANKIN'!
- YOU 4 EVA
- YOU.COM
- YOU.CALM
- WISHIWASU
- WHO'S THAT?
- THE BOUNCA!
- The bird and sounds in this game are a reference to the 1988 game 'California Games'. The very same bird can also be found in the "take-a-break.exe" application highlighted in huttah!
- The background changes with the time of day. If it's night then you'll get a night backround, etc.
- When it says, "In the year 20XX", it's a reference to Megaman.
